      Casi, fue una soprano norteamericana excelente llamada Jessye Norman, casi contemporanea a la negra y que lamentablemente falleció el año pasado (igual que Mercedes a sus 74 años). Ojo que no quiero que suene como pedantería para corregir sino que es una oportunidad para conocer a otra tremenda artista

      Sabía que era una soprano del momento pero no me acordaba su nombre y entonces puse "un crítico",función involuntaria de ese momento en todo caso..Mi madre tiene el recorte de La Gaceta de Tucumán.En el mismo,Mercedes menciona que había cantado esa noche la zamba Agosto en Tucumán y parte del público a la salida del espectáculo le dijo con respecto a esa canción "Ud hace música de aquí",por los elementos de jazz de esa composición.La zamba era de Osvaldo Costello,mi padre,una de las tres que le grabó.

    hi Beth, here is a translation of the lyrics to English:
    Thanks to life, which has given me so much.
    It gave me two eyes, that when I open them,
    perfectly distinguish black from white
    And in the tall sky its starry backdrop,
    And within the multitudes the man I love.

    Thanks to life, which has given me so much.
    It gave me sound and the alphabet.
    With them the words I think and declare:
    “Mother,” “Friend,” “Brother” and light shining down on
    The road of the soul of the one I'm loving.

    Thanks to life, which has given me so much.
    It gave me the pace of my tired feet.
    With them I have traveled cities and puddles
    beaches and deserts, mountains and plains.
    And your house, your street and your patio.

    Thanks to life, which has given me so much.
    It gave me the heart that shakes its frame,
    When I see the fruit of the human brain,
    When I see the good so far from the evil,
    When I look into the depth of your light eyes…

    Thanks to life, which has given me so much.
    It gave me laughter and it gave me crying.
    this is how I distinguish happiness from pain
    The two materials that make up my song,
    And your song, as well, which is the same song.
    And everyone’s song, which is my own song.
    Thank you to life, Thank you to life,
    Thank you to life, Thank you to life...

      @@juanmanuelcastrillon3585 you are, in part, correct; if I translate it literally (word by word) you're probably right. However the word "singing" is used in English only as a verb. In this particular case, when she says "Canto" she's not only referring to the act of singing, it is more of a noun, she also means this song, and the story within the song. Is like saying, "this is my story, my story is everyone's story, and everyone's story is also mine." Just as reference, I am originally from Buenos Aires, and I worked many years as an interpreter for a government, as such, I have to look at the context of the words and convey, not only the words, as acuratelly as possible, but also equivalent expressions. Many times, the equivalent expression doesn't use the same words, although in this case, it practically does. For instance, if you say... "La miré a los ojos" it would literally translate into "I looked at her eyes" but the correct translation would be "I looked into her eyes" even though the preposition "a" means "at" in this case, and not "into".

      I am Danish. I first heard of her when her death was announced on the Danish news. There was a very short sequence of her singing “Gracias a la vida”. I sensed a tremendous energy emanating from her. The sincere and tender yet firm look in her eyes captivated me, and I felt as though she is looking directly into my soul.There was something about her, a “mystical presence,” which reached the deepest parts of my being. Every time I watched her or listened to her voice, I started to cry. I intuitively began relating to her as a mother-figure and discovered that I was healing from childhood wounds. As a result, I have spent many years trying to answer the question: What was the secret behind her impact? It has been an awesome journey..:) If you like to know more about my healing journey with Mercedes Sosa, I have included the story in the biography: Mercedes Sosa - The Voice of Hope

    I loved your reaction to Sosa's voice. Her voice was one of the 10 best voices in the world at her time. Her career started when she won a radio contest when she was 15. She wanted to sing opera but her father didn’t allow it. She grew up in poverty and throughout her life she used her voice in solidarity with her poor, which gave her the nickname, The Voice of The Voiceless. In an interview with Don Heckman for LA Times in 1995 she says: "There are things that are more important than the vocal cords. It's what you feel when you make a sound, feelings of love, of solidarity with others. It's not about technique. It's about what is inside". I believe it is the combination of voice and personality and passion that makes her a singing legend. I spent 10 years researching her personal life and her story is really amazing.

      Mercedes Sosa, was without doubt a world-class performer, but her influence went far beyond the borders of music. She is the unsung hero of Latin America. I have researced her life in depth for years and I would say that she is the female counterpart to South Africa's Nelson Mandela, the mother of South America (who could have become a world legend, had she spoken English and been male). She was blacklisted as being one the most dangerous people to the regime in Argentina in the 1970s, was arrested on stage in front of her audience and took exile in Spain for three years. On her return to Argentina, she became the underground reference point for the poor and oppressed, and an icon of democracy who fought South America’s dictators with her voice. That is why she was nicknamed, “The Voice of the Voiceless”. Here is a list of prizes and titles she earned which shows that she was much more than just a singer.
      Four Latin Grammies
      Diamond Konex Award
      Cim Unesco Award

    Mercedes' voice is eternal, as are Violeta Parra's lyrics. Made a rough translation because no one should listen to this song without understanding it. Also because some of Mercedes' singing nuances and dynamics make sense that way.
    Thanks to life, that has given me so much
    It gave me two stars, which when I open [them]
    I can perfectly distinguish, black from white
    And high in the sky its starry background
    And among the crowds, the man I love
    Thanks to life, that has given me so much
    It gave me sound and the alphabet
    With it, the words, that I think and declare
    'Mother', 'friend', 'brother' and 'shining light'
    The route of the soul of that whom I love
    Thanks to life, that has given me so much
    It gave me my tired feet's walk
    With them I walked cities and puddles
    Beaches and deserts, mountains and plains
    And your house, your street, your patio
    Thanks to life, that has given me so much
    It gave me the heart that shakes its frame
    When I look at the fruit of the human brain
    When I see the good one, so far from the evil
    When I look deep into your light/clear eyes
    Thanks to life, that has given me so much
    It has given me laughter and has given me tears
    So I can distinguish happiness from suffering
    The two materials that make up my song
    And your song, that is the same song
    And everyone's song that is my own song

      She is a legend not only because of her voice, but because of her integrity .This is how Joan Baéz describes her: "Ms. Sosa maintains a balance between craft and conviction that endows her music with a searing honesty and power. I have never seen anything like her. She is monumental in stature, a brilliant singer with tremendous charisma who is both a voice and a persona. She may not look like Tina Turner, but she can hold an audience from the stage. When we were singing in concerts together, I would weep all through her set. It embarrassed her, but one night I got down on my knees and kissed her feet. I hadn't been so moved by music in a long time. As far as performers go, she is simply the best.”

    It is a pride that someone values ​​his voice and talent so much, it shows from the way you applaud with a smile at the end that you enjoyed a lot like all of us who listen to "La Negra", you should look for the lyrics and listen to them with subtitles, it's just beautiful.

    Please react to "Zona de promesas", the version fron the DVD "Cantora". Mercedes recorded that song with Gustavo Ceratti from Soda Stereo, the author.
